Merry Christmas to all and hope the New Year is a wonderful one for one and all.

Outback Aromas has had a very busy year with many new soy candle fragrances added to the list. We know have 35 in the range.

We have travelled around the country and spread the love of our unique products. Our website has been visited by 22 countries and people all over the world are watching what we are creating in our little workshop here in the Wheatbelt town of Merredin.

My family and friends for all the many hours of work they help with. Many hours of prep work, working at stalls at shows and events, stocktakes, packing orders. (Feeding the crew with the bbqs, bringing in morning tea or arvo or bottles of Coke a Cola on many busy days.) Thank you

Great Eastern Freightlines – Geoff, Mel & crew – Thank you

Small Biz Centre Cental Wheatbelt Merredin – Thank you Sal for all your support and laughs.

– New Norcia – Soap and hand cream classes. We had a wonderful group pf ladies that brought with them light , laughter and fun. Thank you.

– We have been to a cocktail party her in Merredin and helped raise funds for Telethon.

– Travelled to Kondinin to help out the lovely ladies to raise funds for their hospital. While we were, I caught up with Mary Nenke (Cabinata Yabbies) and Caroline Robinson (Rural Woman of the year, Wheatbelt Business Network and Ballet Teacher) We talked about the vitalness of networking for Rural people and using the social networks to generate more interested in our businesses and lives.

– Friday I was off to have lunch with many inspiring business people of the Angel Networking Australia group. The networking buzz was so alive and many new ideas and business partnerships were forming.

That afternoon I had a few photos taken with our products for the cruelty-free festival, with the handsome Justin. I learnt a few recipes off him too, mmmmmm.

Langley Park was calling me on Saturday morning with thunder and lightning with some rain. Not to be deterred. I was there to help set up and welcome a very inspiring, caring couple of men, who had walked from Carnarvon to Perth.

I was lucky enough to be able to be part of the last part of their journey, and meet their family and learn more about their son Nathan. A sausage sizzle was the order of the day after their long walk. Being able to help and being part of this last part of the walk and Lifeline was a wonderful experience.

. Next off to a cake fund raising event, we arrived just in time to taste the cakes and give a donation for Red cross.

– We would also like to wish Matt & Tiff all the best for their wedding and by spreading the love of our candles too. Thank you.

– Throw in a bit of training for year 12 exams on the return trip and that is my past week.

Till next time when we share with you what we have been doing, take care.

Thank you
